We really enjoyed our weekend stay with our family, visiting our son at UF. House was very clean and modern. They even left a basket of snacks out for our arrival! They thought of every detail with sound machines in every room and extra beds and linens in the closets. We would definitely stay again!

We had a wonderful stay! The house was very well kept, exceptionally clean, and in a great location. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there, and playing Jenga on the back porch on our last night was the perfect way to end the trip by.The host was fantastic to work with and checked in regularly to make sure we had everything we needed. We felt very well taken care of throughout our stay. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it!

We stayed here while moving our daughter into the University of Florida. The home is very nice and comfortable. The reality matches the pictures. The location to everything we needed to do is great. You will also never rent from a nicer, more responsive host.

Excellent House

House is conveniently located to downtown and UF with plenty space for all the people it can hold and comfortable beds. It is a House that the host clearly pays attention to all details. It is a bit noisy from the cars that go through the road…
